London mayor cracks down on 'unhealthy, unrealistic' body image ads on public transit
Following up on a campaign promise, London’s newly-elected mayor has banned the city’s transportation system from displaying ads that could be seen as sending messages about “unhealthy or unrealistic body images,” particularly to girls and young women.
“As the father of two teenage girls, I am extremely concerned about this kind of advertising which can demean people, particularly women, and make them ashamed of their bodies. It is high time it came to an end,” Mayor Sadiq Khan said in a statement.
